# Team Visma | Lease a Bike Faces Setback in Time Trial at Tour of Denmark
In a challenging 15-kilometer time trial at the PostNord Tour of Denmark, Team Visma | Lease a Bike struggled to secure a top result, with Dylan van Baarle finishing as the team’s best-placed rider in eighteenth. Axel Zingle, who impressed in stage 2 with a third-place finish, rounded out the team’s efforts by placing inside the top thirty.
Sports director Maarten Wynants expressed the team’s disappointment, stating, “Unfortunately, no top result for us. We had secretly hoped for an exceptional performance, but that just wasn’t in the cards today. Dylan and Axel put in solid rides and essentially performed as expected. Our focus now shifts to tomorrow’s queen stage, where we’ll be aiming for a strong result with Axel.”
